Ceremonial Crakows of Aiming ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ceremonial Crakows of Aiming is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Cronopio Leather ×2, Grade 3 Gemsap of Dexterity ×2, Rhodochrosite ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 10 distinct raw materials totalling 29 units, plus 38 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,170 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,478 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Wind Cluster, 9 Earth Cluster, 8 Lightning Crystal and 3 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 100, Alchemist to Lv 100, Goldsmith to Lv 100 and Weaver to Lv 98 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

6 of the 10 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Fulgurite (2:00, 14:00), Raw Rhodochrosite (8:00, 20:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 6 Eorzean hours, about 18 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Thunderyards Silk has the widest use: 120 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
